4. Configuración
4.1. Instalación del disco duro
The NVR does not include a pre-installed hard drive. A 3.5" SATA HDD (up to 6TB recommended) is required for recording. Follow these steps to install the hard drive:
- Desatornille y retire la cubierta superior del NVR.
- Conecte los cables de datos y alimentación SATA del NVR al disco duro.
- Align the hard drive with the screw holes on the NVR's base and secure it with screws.
- Replace the NVR's top cover and secure it with screws.

4.2. Conexión de cámaras
The NVR supports 4K/8MP ONVIF-compliant IP cameras. Ensure your cameras are compatible.
4.2.1. Direct Connection to NVR PoE Ports
If your NVR has built-in PoE ports, connect your IP cameras directly to these ports using Ethernet cables. The NVR will automatically provide power and data connection.
4.2.2. Connection via PoE Switch or Router
If your cameras are not directly connected to the NVR's PoE ports (e.g., using an external PoE switch or router), ensure both the NVR and the cameras are connected to the same local area network (LAN).
Video 2: Guide on how to connect cameras to an NVR, including direct PoE and network connections.
4.2.3. Connecting WiFi Cameras (General Guide)
For WiFi cameras, ensure they are connected to the same network as your NVR. You may need to configure the camera's WiFi settings via its manufacturer's app or web interface first. Once on the same LAN, the NVR should be able to discover and add them.

4.3. Asistente de configuración inicial
After connecting the NVR to a monitor (via VGA or HDMI) and powering it on, an initial setup wizard will guide you through basic configurations:
- Idioma y zona horaria: Select your preferred language and set the correct time zone.
- Configuración de contraseña: Crea una contraseña segura para el usuario 'admin'.
- Configuración de red: Confirm network settings (DHCP is usually enabled by default).
- Camera Discovery: The NVR will automatically search for and add connected IP cameras. If cameras are not discovered, ensure their IP addresses are compatible with the NVR's network segment.
5. Operación del NVR
5.1. Vivir View
Una vez agregadas las cámaras, puedes view vivir footage on your connected monitor. The NVR supports full 4K video viewing on all 16 channels.

5.2. Reproducción
Acceder a foo grabadotage through the NVR's menu. You can search by time, date, event, or channel. The H.265+ compression allows for longer recording times and simultaneous network transmission and playback.
5.3. Remote Access (Cloud P2P)
The NVR features Cloud P2P functionality for remote viewing and playback. Install the XMeye app on your smartphone or tablet, or use client software on your PC, to monitor your premises from anywhere.

5.4. Grabación por detección de movimiento
Configure the NVR to record only when motion is detected, saving storage space. You can set specific areas for motion detection and adjust sensitivity levels.

5.5. H.265+ Compression Technology
The NVR utilizes H.265+ video compression, which significantly increases bandwidth and storage efficiency compared to older standards like H.264. This results in smaller file sizes, higher definition, and longer recording times without compromising video quality.

6. Mantenimiento
6.1. Restablecimiento de contraseña
If you forget your NVR's login password, you can reset it using the security questions you set during initial setup or by scanning a CAPTCHA QR code with the mobile app.

7. Solución de problemas
7.1. Cameras Not Connecting/Offline
If cameras appear offline or cannot be added:
- IP Address Mismatch: Ensure the camera's IP address is in the same network segment as the NVR's IP address (e.g., 172.16.0.x). If not, you may need to use the camera manufacturer's firmware or tools to change the camera's IP address.
- Incorrect Login Credentials: If the NVR indicates "wrong user name and password," enter the correct username (default is often 'admin') and password (default is often 'ipc123456' for new Hikvision/Dahua cameras, or check your camera's manual).
- Conectividad de red: Verify all Ethernet cables are securely connected and that the network (router/switch) is functioning correctly.
7.2. No hay salida de video en el monitor
If you see no video on your monitor:
- Conexión de cable: Ensure the HDMI or VGA cable is securely connected between the NVR and the monitor.
- Entrada del monitor: Check that your monitor is set to the correct input source (HDMI/VGA).
- Resolución: The NVR's output resolution might be incompatible with your monitor. Access the NVR's settings (if possible, or try connecting to a different monitor) and adjust the VGA/HDMI resolution to a supported setting (e.g., 1920*1080/60Hz).
